Job description

The future of defense will be decided by those who field intelligent machines at scale. At Scout AI, we're developing Fury, the first robotic foundation model for defense, to give U.S. forces overwhelming, adaptable, and autonomous power across every domain. Fury enables human operators to command fleets of robots through natural language, and empowers those machines to sense, decide, and act together as one. This mission will ask everything of us: urgency, precision, and relentless work.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior Program Manager, Government Programs who will help win strategic government opportunities and ensure successful execution once programs are awarded. This role spans the full lifecycle of government work, from proposal development and capture support to program management and contract execution.

As a Senior Program Manager, you will lead the development of government proposals and help manage the execution of awarded programs. You will work closely with engineering, leadership, business development, and legal teams to translate cutting-edge technology into successful government programs. You will play a key role in helping Scout AI scale its engagement with the U.S. Department of War, defense innovation organizations, and prime contractor partners. This role combines proposal leadership, program management, and contract coordination, ensuring that Scout AI can both win and deliver critical national security programs.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the end-to-end development of government proposals including RFPs, RFIs, and RFQs
  • Build and manage proposal schedules, compliance matrices, and submission plans
  • Coordinate inputs across engineering, leadership, finance, legal, and external partners
  • Translate technical capabilities into compelling proposal narratives
  • Ensure proposals meet all government compliance requirements and evaluation criteria
  • Manage submission through government portals and prime contractor systems
  • Support capture strategy and pre-RFP shaping in partnership with business development
  • Serve as program manager for awarded government contracts
  • Track program milestones, deliverables, and reporting requirements
  • Maintain regular communication with government program offices and customer stakeholders
  • Manage program schedules, risks, and dependencies

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience managing U.S. Government proposals or defense contracting submissions
  • Strong understanding of federal proposal processes and evaluation structures
  • Experience coordinating complex technical programs across multiple teams
  • Ability to translate deep technical concepts into clear proposal narratives
  • Exceptional program management and organizational skills
  • Strong writing, editing, and communication abilities
  • Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export controlled information or facilities

Why Join Scout

  • Work on the world's most important frontier, ensuring U.S. and allied dominance in the age of intelligent machines
  • Be a core part of a team building the first defense-specific robotic foundation model
  • Collaborate with some of the top engineers in autonomy, AI, and national security
  • See your work deployed on real systems
  • Help define the future of intelligent defense systems
  • Backed by Draper Associates, Booz Allen Ventures, PerotJain and other top investors

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation package including base salary and bonus.
  • Meaningful equity
  • Premium medical, dental, and vision plans with $0 paycheck contribution
  • Competitive PTO and company holiday calendar
  • Catered lunch daily and fully stocked kitchen
  • Unlimited AI tokens
  • EV charging
  • Relocation assistance (depending on role eligibility)
